Blaine Alexander Price, (born 1964) is a Senior Lecturer in Computing at The Open University in the United Kingdom. Price was born in Montreal, Canada. He obtained his BSc in Computing and Information Science from Queen's University in 1988 and his MSc in Computer Science from the University of Toronto in 1991. ==Career== In 1989, Price was a Summer Research Intern in Apple Computer's Human Interface Group.〔(Apple Human Interface Group Alumni )〕 In 1990 he completed his MSc dissertation on automatic animation of concurrent programs and began his PhD research in Software visualization with Ronald Baecker. In 1991 he took a one year assignment in Open University's Human Cognition Research Lab (now the Knowledge Media Institute) and three years later he was appointed to a temporary contract as a Lecturer in Computing in the Faculty of Mathematics. The next year he was made a permanent Lecturer and launched a 4 year program to transform the delivery of Open University materials from paper and surface postal delivery to electronic delivery. He produced the first automatic system for large scale processing of student electronic assignment submission and return. In 1997 he took a 2 year secondment as Chief Systems Strategist to the Knowledge Media Institute. Upon returning to the renamed Faculty of Mathematics and Computing he resumed his academic role and conducted research in the use of robotics in teaching computing. In 2007 he launched the Open University's first course in Forensic Computing.〔(M889 )〕 In 2004 he began conducting research into privacy with a focus on mobile computing and lifelogging in particular. He continues to supervise students and conduct research in this area and is a co-investigator on the EPSRC funded PRiMMA project.〔(Privacy Rights Management for Mobile Applications Project )〕 Blaine has always taken a human-centred approach to computing. He is interested in privacy in mobile and ubiquitous computing and in lifelogging technologies in particular, including both personal lifelogging and logging energy and resource usage. He is currently studying how invisible and automatic lifelogging data can be used by ordinary people to gain insights about their life. He supervises PhD students in the areas of privacy, sustainable computing and digital forensics. He was principal investigator on a number of Knowledge Transfer Partnership projects with industrial partners from 2009-2011, a co-investigator on the £1.2M EPSRC (PRiMMA (Privacy Rights Management for Mobile Applications )) from 2008-2011 and a co-investigator on the 5 year ERC funded (ASAP (Adaptive Security and Privacy )) where he is looking at security and privacy issues in lifelogging. He is also (August 2013) a co-investigator responsible for a (Privacy Dynamics ) grant. He is currently (August 2013) involved in the (E.ON thinking Energy project ) Blaine is an academic advisor for a number of BBC/Open University co-productions, an advisor to the (Open Rights Group ), and an accreditation assessor in digital forensics for the (Forensic Science Society ). He appeared on the BBC Today programme on 12 August 2013 in connection with the ('Monitor Me' ) programme on the BBC2 Horizon the same day.〔See this webpage for more data on this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-23663968.
